Please provide pre-calculated IV sedation dosages to be used in the event they are necessary to achieve a full diagnostic ultrasound. If sedation is deemed necessary by the Sonographer despite best efforts to avoid it, due to abdominal wall tension or excessive patient movement, and dosages are not available or if they are declined, a partial scan will be performed and a full scan charge may apply. Please note, we do NOT REQUIRE sedation, it is a choice made by dvm and owner. Please contact us if sedation recommendations are needed from our specialists (*certain sedatives interfere with echocardiograms, please contact us with any questions)
